Recalls apply to specific build ranges, so a recall listed here may or may not cover your particular vehicle. NHTSA's free VIN lookup is the authority: nhtsa.gov/recalls.
Transport Canada runs its own recall programme. Its campaigns do not always mirror the American ones, so a Canadian owner reading a US-only list is reading about a different car than the one on their driveway.
Issue: On certain motorhomes, a wiring problem could allow the slide-out room to extend from the motorhome while driving. Safety Risk: A slide-out room that extends from the motorhome while driving could increase the risk of a crash. Corrective Actions: Thor Motor Coach will notify owners by mail and advise you to take your motorhome to a dealership to replace the parking brake wiring harness.

Safety Risk: An overheated propane (LP) tank could create a fire risk. Corrective Actions: Thor Motor Coach will notify owners by mail and instruct you to take your motorhome to a dealer to install a heat shield between the propane (LP) tank and the exhaust system.

On certain motorhomes equipped with Kidde fire extinguishers with black plastic handles and valves, the fire extinguishers may become clogged or require excessive force to activate. Also, the nozzle may detach from the valve assembly with enough force that it could cause injury, and fail to discharge. In case of fire, failure of the extinguisher to function could result in injury and/or property damage. Correction: Owners will be provided with instructions on how to inspect the fire extinguisher to see if it is recalled. Replacement fire extinguishers will be supplied by Kidde directly.

On certain motorhomes, the wiring for the trailer lighting connector may be incorrect, and as a result, trailer tail lamps, trailer stop lamps, trailer side marker lamps and trailer lighting would not function. Failure of the stop lamps to illuminate when the brakes are applied may result in following road users being unaware of the driver's intentions, increasing the risk of a crash causing property damage and/or personal injury. Correction: Dealers will re-wire a new trailer lighting connector.
On certain motorhomes, the Cargo Carrying Capacity Label does not indicate the correct hot water and fresh water tank capacity. This could result in vehicle overloading leading to poor vehicle handling characteristics, which could result in a crash causing injury and/or property damage. Correction: Updated labels will be mailed to owners of affected vehicles along with instructions for proper installation.

Correction: Updated labels will be mailed to owners of affected vehicles along with instructions for proper installation.
Certain motorhomes were built with a defective heater and air conditioning control head. If the controller was subjected to a spike in voltage, it could lock the heater and air conditioning control head in the position that it was set on at the time of the spike. This would not give the operator the ability to change the air flow to the defrost/defog setting. Without the ability to defrost/defog their windshield, visibility could be reduced, increasing the risk of a crash causing injury and/or damage to property. Correction: Dealers will install an additional wiring harness that will prevent a voltage spike and voltage overload of the control head.
On certain vehicles, incorrect adhesive was used to secure the treads on the entry stairs into the vehicle. This could cause the stair treads to come loose and increase the risk of a person slipping and/or falling while entering or exiting the vehicle, potentially resulting in injury. Correction: Dealers will install new stair treads using appropriate adhesive and will install securing screws.
